Time to share my latest cartoon homage done as part of my 50 Years in the Dungeon show. This one is my tip of the hat to Wayne Reynolds's cover for the Fantasy AGE Core Rules 2E from @greenroninpub.bsky.social.

Thinking of my best friend from my college years on what would have been his 62nd birthday. Sad to find that I don't have any digitized photos of him ... and I have no idea what boxes in my closet might contain the physical originals. Miss ya, 'Treuse.

Thanks for the inspiration @rayvallese.bsky.social

I really should dig up all my Typos of Doom and put them into an ebook or something.

Writing project proposals saps the life out of me. Like so many creatives, even after all these years I get nervous when proposing budgets, especially with a new client. It takes a force of will to remember that I need to propose HIGH and negotiate down ... also that I'm WORTH what I'm asking for.

Another fun evening of improv cartooning on tonight's Random Encounters livestream. Lot's of great input from the live chat together with the encounter tables gave us these randomly-generated drawing prompts: Carnivorous Plant UFO Encounter, Adventurers Sack the QB, and Vampire's Empty Pantry.

Happy Autumnal Equinox, everyone! Fact of the matter is, Fall is actually my favorite season ... but crossing this line always reminds me that winter is coming.
